Abstract

As pointed out in the introduction, the literature on endogenous growth demonstrates that the regional capacity to sustain innovation is embodied in the region’s institutions and resources – namely, its underlying technological infrastructure. Moreover, the process of innovation does not follow a straightforward linear model path from the laboratory to the marketplace. In other words, rather than being sequential, the innovation process is a spiral. Schematically, private business research is fuelled by diverse university research and diverse types of expertise coming from customers and suppliers. The latter also feeds back into university research.

Nächstes Kapitel The Role of Intra-, Inter-, and Extra-Regional Sources of Knowledge Spillovers. The Evidence of High-Tech Industries

In addition, some regions were occupied predominantly by agriculture employment and, since the agricultural market sector and technological opportunities were weak, the potential for growth in these regions was relatively low.

As a result, they are not always understood by the relevant business actors. For example, very often S&T parks that were originally meant to strengthen knowledge exchange operate instead as renting areas (Webster 1996).

The evolutionary interpretation, in contrast, assumes that, within specific local contexts, universities, government and industry are learning to encourage economic growth through the development of “generative relationships” and a spontaneous convergence of the industrial and academic worlds (Leydesdorff and Etzkowitz 1997). The role of the government in the evolutionary interpretation of the Helix Model is limited to cases of so-called “market failure.” Many of the EU-15 regions in the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands, discussed in the previous section, could meet the criteria of the neo-revolutionary model of RIS.

with Hungary and the Czech Republic being above average and Lithuania and Latvia having very low levels of employment concentration in both high-tech and business R&D efforts (Lengyel and Cadil 2009).
